Today's episode doesn't need any
sequential dissection. It was very simple and in your face putting the facts
for Armaan, Shilpa and Riddz ( Lucky Sid, grooving in Capitol in Delhi) ' and
perhaps for the audience as well.

Let's kick off with Armaan Malik
and Riddhima Modi. First things , first. I guess everybody knows that like CZ.
, I do not buy the jealousy theory in regards to Shilpa as of now . Maybe
because I see a different show or maybe I have a different perspective
altogether. A man-woman relationship is not always categorized in as love ,
hatred , fury and in this case jealousy. There are a zillion nuances to human
emotions and how we relate to each-other ' and you can never really know how
much and what all a human heart holds. Armaan will always be Riddhima and
naturally Siddhanth's baby. No matter how much you hate SR or love SR. Armaan
is their root and that is why whenever he hurts , you see Sid's eyes fill up
with tears as he puts Armaan to sleep , and Riddhima burst into tears of guilt
and pathos as Armaan consciously or unconsciously tells her that she is
responsible for his state. Today, the woman stopping Armaan from going into the
fight was a thread of the past , was a woman trying to hide her face in the
warmth of her beautiful present and hopeful future but weighed down by the
guilt that she is happy and blissful while her past wants to burn in a
purgatory, a woman who grabbed Armaan by the shoulder but looking at the fleeting
tender look in his eyes withdrew indicating that the time that was is long gone
Armaan.

As people debate over Riddhima's
character on the grounds of hypocrisy,
emotional confusion , jealousy and rest of the blah, blah, Riddhima Modi tells
you over and over that her issue is just one and it is this ' How can I and Sid
live in peace and step together into a blissful future when Armaan has chosen
slow suicide? I know that whatever condition Armaan is in , it is because of me
, so how do I go to sleep in peace thinking that somebody who has been so
important to me is falling deeper into hell every single day? '.It is easy for
us to sit back and judge Riddhima. But I believe that until now creatives have
kept one thing constant with Riddhima ' HER HONESTY. When Riddhima told Sid
that he is her everything , she was honest. When she told Armaan that she is
long gone and he has to live his life with a new dream , she was honest. But
what she is suffering now , is a different kind of hell ' the guilt that she is
trying to get rid of is being played out in front of her everyday. Everyday ,
Armaan is destroying himself in front of SR. And they both are reacting as
normal good human-beings do. Above all, you can never take away SR's emotional
attachment to Armaan.

Once again , it was strongly
stressed in today's episode that rather than jealousy, Riddhima's issue with
Shilpa is the Mommykins' Complex. Shilpa appears as a wrong girl who is taking
Armaan back to his hellish days. And even today, the point was stressed twice '
when Shilpa was blamed for Armaan's return to maar-dhaad and when Riddz
misunderstood that Shilpa had egged Armaan for this fight. So, I think Shilpa
is in for a round of firing from Riddhima tomorrow.

And then, how can you not talk
about ArShi. Hmmm' somehow I have always felt that Siddhanth and Shilpa handle
Armaan much better than Riddhima. They both gauge Armaan's mood and match it up
' sometimes with attitude , sometimes with pluck and sometimes with tenderness.
Look at it today , Riddhima , as usual bahaaoed ganga-jamuna and pleaded with
Armaan not to go and fight. On the other hand, Shilpa took his case head on and
did not leave him just like that ' she went behind him , with him despite his
protests '.instead of crying over Armaan's state, she kept urging him to fight
back'.that is the DIFFERENCE. Shilpa supported Armaan while Riddhima lectured
him and gave him some really STUPID and SUICIDAL emotional dhamkeez.

What to say about the last frame.
Riddhima's entry at the rink appears nonsensical '.i mean , you send the guy to
a fight telling him to get turned into a ketchup , and then, you have the
audacity to ghoorofy Shilpa and lecture everyone to stop the fight? Riddhima!
Kitne tequila shots maare the Sid ki yaad mein kal raat ko? Tell, tell!

Precap: I guess tomorrow we have
10 faaltu minutes of the song' Armaan drying his wounds in AC and blowers ki
hawaa , Shilpa reminding the audience how beautiful she is with her gol-gol
aankhein and lambi lambi zulfein, Sid thinking that Riddz is crying to compete
with the cry-o-meter and Riddz surprising Sid by sobbing over his and her
wedding picture'. Hmmm' understandable. With all this emotional strain caused
by Arshi, Riddz needs Sid by her side to hug and kiss her to a peaceful sleep.

In the end , a love note for
Armaan:

It is immaterial now , who did
what Armaan. It is true that you embraced Siddhanth , you released Riddhima as
well. But the only reason that you are in this state is yourself. You need to
release yourself from this self-imposed purgatory. Life is short . Don't look
at the closed door for so long that you don't hear the wind chimes right behind
you' echoing from the second door of hope that destiny just opened for you.
After all, when that girl with big brilliant eyes was mentioned to you
yesterday , what did you say?....DESTINY. Embrace Shilpa. So that you can embrace
yourself.
